Chapter 261

"Oh, I see!" Durandal exclaimed happily, "It's rare to have new clothes!"

For these Valkyrie, armor is like new clothes.

To adapt to different environments, opponents, and times of combat, one set of combat suits is certainly not enough. For Valkyrie, the more the merrier!

Bring as many as you can!

Moreover, since Lord Otto just mentioned that Doctor Mei can make armor, Durandal is thinking about whether she should get one for herself too.

Now Lord Otto has spoken.

That made her even happier!

Isn't this perfectly aboveboard?

"Then how do I find Doctor Mei?" Durandal asked. "Which laboratory is she in?"

"Just ask around at school," Otto said, putting down his teacup. "She's quite famous there."

"Nobody doesn't know where her laboratory is."

"At this time of day..." Otto glanced at the clock on the wall.

"She's probably sweeping the streets."

Chapter 283 Hello Li Pu

MEI is sweeping the streets.

To be more precise, Li Pu was sweeping the main street! Sweeping the road leading to the school.

Although he has a lot of free time here to study his own system, he still has to do his job. What is his job?

My main job is as a cleaner!

Li Pu is a very wise cleaner.

The kind of cleaner who can do the splits in mid-air, the kind who really can do the splits in mid-air.

Every day he would go to his assigned cleaning area, sweep the streets in a proper manner, and then start slacking off.

Today~

"That person looks so familiar." Li Pu had just started working when he saw a familiar figure coming out of the administration building and heading towards the laboratory building.

"Isn't that... Durandal?"

Li Pu was slightly surprised!

Yes, isn't that Durandal?

I was just wondering how to find her when she showed up at my doorstep.

Oh~

Interesting!

Interesting~

"My new Mustard Herring Puffs aren't ready yet," Li Pu said, carrying a broom. "You just delivered yourself to my doorstep. That's a bit too fast."

"But... will this Mustard Herring Puffs turn out delicious in Durandal's mouth?"

This... this is a bit of a dilemma.

Li Pu originally intended to use this as a prank, but Wendy set a precedent. Wendy genuinely didn't think the Mustard Herring Puffs was a prank item.

She genuinely treated that thing as a new dessert and ate it with great relish.

If...

If Durandal like that too.

So why did Li Pu go through all this trouble? Besides the mission, he especially wanted to see Durandal embarrass herself! Who told her to knock him out and stuff him into the box back then!

Li Pu will never forget this incident in his life.

"Yes, I need to go up and take a look."

Li Pu thought for a moment and decided to go and see how Youlan Dai suddenly ended up here.

"Yo~"

Li Pu, carrying a broom, took the initiative to go up and greet Durandal.

How did you get here?

This time it was Durandal's turn to be surprised. She looked astonished and said, "This is St. Freya."

"Yes," Li Pu said without any surprise, "I know this is St. Freya, and I'm a cleaner here. I applied for this job properly."

"So why can't I be here?"

Durandal really didn't expect to run into Li Pu here. She looked Li Pu up and down carefully.

It seems that this is indeed the case.

"You... you're just a janitor?" Durandal said, "The Mother of Valkyries..."

The legendary Mother of Valkyries is actually a janitor? That's... not that exciting news at all.

Durandal seemed to have heard from one of the maids that the Mother of Valkyries's main job was a cleaner.

"I thought Rita was just talking nonsense," Durandal remarked. "I didn't expect it to be true."

"What did you say?" Li Pu frowned.

"No, it's nothing," Durandal said. "I haven't even come to you about you standing us up before."

"But that's perfect, I'm going to be staying in St. Freya for a while, so you can make it up to me!"

'Heh~ You think I didn't hear you?!' Li Pu thought to himself with a sneer, 'Let me tell you! Silly Goose! You're definitely going to eat the Mustard Herring Puffs!'

"And I want to add tons of wasabi and tons of herring, and I want to dip the cream puffs in that broth before you eat them!"

Don't think I didn't hear you!

Li Pu was furious inside, but on the surface he still smiled and said, "Will you stay in St. Freya for a while?"

"Aren't you the captain of the Blade of Unending? Don't tell me the Blade of Unending has moved its base here."

"Oh, of course not," Durandal said. "I was just ordered to come and give some pointers to a child named Wendy, to guide her into the realm of the Valkyrie."

"According to the information, he is a good kid with good qualities and potential."

'Although I know Wendy has good potential,' Li Pu thought to himself, 'it's true that a fool teaching a fool is a perfect match.'

"Was it Otto?" Li Pu asked. "Did he send you?"

"Yes," Durandal said. "Who else could it be?"

"As expected," Li Pu thought to himself, "But it can't be that simple, can it?"

"Speaking of which?" Durandal suddenly asked, "Since you're here, do you know where Doctor Mei's laboratory is?"

"Doctor Mei?" Li Pu was slightly taken aback.

What does Durandal want with her?

Could it be that Otto arranged this? Is this like someone delivering a pillow just when you're about to fall asleep? No, Otto... he wouldn't be that kind, would he?

He must be up to something.

"Don't you recognize her?" Durandal said. "That's her! Lord Otto said she's very famous."

"At school."

"Famous?" Li Pu frowned and asked, "How did you become famous?"

"Lord Otto said," Durandal relayed Otto's words, "that is, whenever you mention 'that old spinster with the perpetually sullen face' or 'that woman who turns the lab into a junkyard.'"

"'An evil female doctor conducting inhumane experiments in a bizarre laboratory'"

"Everyone will know who it is."

"Hmm." Durandal asked, noticing Li Pu's odd expression, "What are you angry about?"

"Ah~" Li Pu's expression changed, and he smiled as brightly as a flower, saying, "Me? What could I be angry about? I just planned to treat Otto to something nice to eat."

"Oh," Durandal said, "You seem to have a good relationship with Lord Otto."

"Then this doctor."

"Sorry, I don't know him," Li Pu said. "What do you think I do? Actually, I'm just an ordinary cleaner, but I have a good relationship with Otto, so I have a little bit of special privileges."

"Why do you think I should know about that doctor? And why should that doctor want to know about me?"

"What kind of connection could there be between us?"

"That makes sense~" Durandal nodded and said, "Although your character isn't great, and you stood me up, you're still much better than that Doctor."

"If people can talk about someone like that, that PhD student must be a terrible person. Maybe she's the kind of person who's been a virgin for ages."

"Ugh, I really don't want to associate with people like that."

"But she seems to be able to create Valkyrie armor."

"Even if it's just for the Valkyrie Armor," Durandal said, "I'm willing to risk everything."

"Oh, right, it's a promise~ you have to make it up to me."

"Remember, don't stand me up."

"Huh? Li Pu."

"Your face..."

"What..."

"It's dark?"

Chapter 284 Dangerous Silly Goose

Finally, thanks to his straightforwardness, the Silly Goose managed to find MEI's lab.

"So this garbage dump was actually a laboratory?!" said the Silly Goose standing at the door. "There really are laboratories that look like this!"

"Is this St. Freya?"

"This is truly an eye-opening place."

Actually, the Silly Goose had come here several times before, and then turned around and left.

This laboratory was quite different from what she had imagined!

Even if it's not technologically advanced, it should at least be clean and tidy.

Clean and tidy...

The lab looked quite clean, but it was far from tidy! It was filled with all sorts of incomprehensible equipment and messy wiring.

Although I'm not a tech person, I've at least heard Silly Goose grunt and eaten pork.

I've seen some tech guys lay out cables, and they do it all neatly and cleanly.

What kind of ribbon cable is this?

Is it a random line?

Silly Goose often hear tech guys complaining about terrible ribbon cables, but if they're really that bad, then isn't the ribbon cable situation hopeless?!

"I think you not only enjoy talking badly about people behind their backs." Just then, a girl who looked exactly like Mei appeared in front of Silly Goose, holding a white coffee cup. She said, seemingly annoyed, "But you prefer talking badly about people to their faces!"

"My lab hasn't done anything to offend you, has it?"

"Durandal!"

"Well..." Durandal seemed embarrassed and said, "No, it's just that your lab is really hard to find!"

"I never expected your lab to be so..."

"Unique".
